L.B. White Premier 40 Series Owner's Manual And Instructions page 11

-- Check all pipe connections, hose connections,
fi ttings and adapters upstream of the gas control with
approved gas leak detectors.
-- In the event a gas leak is detected, check the compo-
nents involved for cleanliness and proper application
of pipe compound before further tightening.
-- Tighten the gas connections as necessary to stop
the leak.
-- After all connections are checked and any leaks are
stopped, turn on the main burner.
-- Stand clear while the main burner ignites to prevent
injury caused from hidden leaks that could cause
fl ashback.
-- With the main burner in operation, check all connec-
tions, hose connections, fi ttings and joints as well as
the gas control valve inlet and outlet connections with
approved gas leak detectors.
-- If a leak is detected, check the components involved
for cleanliness in the thread areas and proper ap-
plication of pipe compound before further tightening.
-- Tighten the gas connection as necessary to stop the
leak.
-- If necessary, replace the parts or components
involved if the leak cannot be stopped.
-- Ensure all gas leaks have been identifi ed and
repaired before proceeding.
8. A qualifi ed service technician must check for proper
operating gas pressure upon installation of the
heater.
9. Light according to instructions on heater or within
owner's manual.
10. The heater must have the proper gas regulator for
the application. Use only the L.B. White regulator
originally supplied with the heater. This regulator
includes a POL fi tting incorporating an excess fl ow
valve. The excess fl ow valve is a safety device
which protects against discharge from the propane
gas supply container if the regulator is broken off.
If the POL fi tting is ever replaced, it needs to be re-
placed with an L.B. White POL fi tting. Failure to do
so can result in fi res, explosions, loss of property,
injury or death.

11. A regulator must be connected to the gas supply
so that the pressure to the inlet of the gas
control valve is regulated within the range
specifi ed on the dataplate at all times. Contact
your gas supplier or the L.B. White Co., LLC if
you have any questions.
12. This heater is confi gured for use for propane
gas vapor withdrawal only. Do not use the
heater in an propane gas liquid withdrawal
system or application. If you are in doubt,
contact the L.B. White Co., LLC.
13. The heater must be installed so as not to
interfere with or obstruct normal exits,
emergency exits, doors and walkways.
14. Railing, fencing or suitable substitute materials
must be used to keep the heating equipment
from any people using and visiting the structure.
15. The unit shall be located so that rain, ice, or
snow drainage from the structure does not affect
equipment operation. If the unit is mounted
outside, it must be mounted above any pooled
or standing water. If the unit is to be located on
the ground, a surrounding trench is
recommended to drain any rain, ice or snow
away from the unit.
16. The ground and surrounding terrain must be
cleared of any combustible vegetation and
other combustible materials when the heater is
mounted outside.
17. Thermostat failure may result in an underheating
condition. The thermostat should be tested to
make sure it turns the heater on and off within a
temperature differential of ±3°F (±1.5 °C).
18. Take time to understand how to operate and
maintain the heater by using this Owner's
Manual. Make sure you know how to shut off
the gas supply to the building and also to the
individual heater. Contact your fuel gas supplier
if you have any questions.
19. Any defects found in performing any of the
service or maintenance procedures must be
corrected and defective parts replaced
immediately. The heater must be evaluated by
a qualifi ed service technician before placing the
heater back into use.
